Stacey Molengraaf
Registered Psychotherapist, MACP, Diploma, Registered Psychotherapist (Qualifying)
One of my favourite metaphors for Autism is that it is like a salad bar. The diversity of experience in the Autistic community is wide and far-ranging, much like a plentiful salad bar filled with various veggies, dressings, and toppings that can be combined into an infinite number of salad options. As such, I aim to hold space for you to share and explore your experience.
Perhaps your experience includes lateral thinking, heightened sensory awareness, sensory overload, a love for the arts or cosplay, meltdowns or shutdowns, special interests, or exceptional abilities. Perhaps you are unfamiliar with many or some of these concepts and are trying to make sense of your experiences or wondering why you keep burning out. Perhaps you have a solid understanding of Autism but are frustrated by other aspects of life, such as anxiety, the need to mask, or the relenting demands of daily life in a world designed for non-autistic brains. Wherever you are, I aim to hold space for you to be seen, heard, and valued. I am here to support you in making sense of and finding ways to work with your Autistic self/brain.
If you'd like to learn more about how I can support you in your journey with Autism, check out my blog post on the R.I.S.E. framework.

Tamara Daniszewski
Registered Social Worker, M.ED, MSW, RSW
For autistic children, teens or adults, therapy is not about changing who you are. It is about building understanding, communication, emotional regulation and confidence in a world that often feels overwhelming or confusing. At Brookhaven Psychotherapy, we focus on strengths, sensory needs and real-world coping strategies.
